Abstract :
Diffuse optical tomography(DOT) is a nonlinear optimization problem to find optical coefficients using near-infrared light. Linearized methods was used by many researchers to avoid the nonlinearity of DOT. In this paper, the nonlinearity of DOT is studied using Born expansion and some parameters measuring the nonlinearity of DOT is suggested.
